Steaming Tips and Techniques

• Do not pack food too tightly in the steam baskets. Leave some space for

steam to circulate as much as possible.

• For best results, use pieces of food of approximately the same size (such

as potatoes, vegetables and chicken breasts) so that they cook at the

same time. The size and thickness of the food will alter the cooking time.

• Avoid lifting the lid to check on the cooking progress too often, as this

allows loss of steam and can lengthen the cooking time.

• If recipes require the use of cling film, always use the all purpose type

suitable for use in microwave ovens. Cling film is often used to prevent

condensation forming and spoiling delicates foods such as egg custards.

Avoid using foil as this tends to increase the steaming time.

• When choosing food for steaming, select suitable size food to fit the

steaming basket, especially if it is cooked whole such as fish.

• Subtle flavour can be given to steamed food with the addition of fresh

herbs, slices of lemon or orange, garlic and onion. These ingredients may

be added directly to the food.

• To give more flavour to poultry, meat and fish, use marinades,

combinations of herbs and wine or barbecue sauces or spices blends.

• The frozen vegetables and fruits can be steamed without being defrosted.

All shellfish, poultry and meat must be completely thawed before

steaming.

• For some recipes with a long cooking time, such as steamed sponge

pudding, you will need to top up with more cold water during steaming.

• Always use oven gloves when handling the baskets or steaming cups

during or after cooking.
